Make a View to show birthdays

ralarsen - October 30, 2009 - 23:13

I'm a newbie in Drupal, but I know my way around PHP.
I have 6.14 installed and would like to use Views to make different kind of - well views :)
For instance: I want to make a list of coming birthdays among the profiles.
I have made my view, that collects the birthdays from the database, but how do I sort them and how do I calculate a value "age"?
Can someone guide me or tell me where to read more?
Thanks in advance.

you sort them by using the sorting options in views.

I don't know that views will do math for you. Views does have a rewrite this field option that may help.

Not sure but these might help

I haven't tried these for your problem but they might be worth a look,
